Yep I rewatched all their series’ together quite recently and you can see the cracks showing. It’s obvious Katie actually doesn’t want to be on camera all the time (she’s SO self conscious even then, and I think she looked amazing) and Pete is pushing the happy families on camera. He LOVED it, and loves ‘being famous’.
He quite often would do things or say things and then say Katie was being crazy, or it didn’t happen. And I was sat there like - I just
bleeping SAW IT. Never mind what happened when the cameras weren’t on.
He loved to shame her and guilt her about stuff, although I have to say she also would pick holes in him constantly and she does that with all her men. They are having a loving moment and then she moved away and says to the camera that his breath stinks, then repeats it throughout the episode. Embarrassing
I think Peter saw Katie as a commodity, she was always paranoid because she’d heard rumours that he was told to have a jungle romance and picked her for it. She was really obsessed with him and he wanted a showmance. I think it opened so many doors that they were a brand and he rode the money wave!
He was also always so insecure because Katie earnt more than him and always trying to show his ‘business ventures’ like building a house in Greece ! And saying he earnt money through that - it was all bollocks though
